Fuji holders seizing up

Has anyone got problems with their Fuji CP6* holders sticking and not indexing the nozzles? We find about 2 or 3 holders seizing up on us every two weeks or so. It's really frustrating, not to mention the damage it can cause on the machine and the feeders. Right now, we're cleaning the insides with a degreaser and just nudging it until it rotates (so we've been told!) Has anyone got a better solution to detect and/or prevent this problem?

It looks like your holders now require some maintenance. You will need to throughly clean all the holders of all dirt debris and then relube the holder lightly with T&D or grease. You will only need to lube the shaft of the nozzle change enagager and the shaft shere the spring is. Becareful not to lube the nozzle holes otherwise you will end up with nozzles getting stuck after pickup or placement. If you still have problems, contact Fuji.
